THE CLUSTER ,if not working,wont effect the engine performance but will effect your ac controls.Ive owned 3 trofeos and havent had any real success with keeping a good electronic dash gauge pod for more than two years.The ones ive found at junkyards are exactly that ,JUNK , out of 6 if pulled only one worked ,for 2 months,just enough time for the warranty to expire.HERES THE REMEDY ,go to car-parts.com search flowers wrecking service ,theyll fix your unit for $300. ive had one thats lasted 2 years so far ,they say a diode or module goes out ,forget which ,these are the first generation of the EDG s and is a japaneze product ,cost new, $1600 from the factory . Hmmm ,wonder if it was built to fail?Oh yeah ,if you think itll be a touch job to replace ,it isnt ,takes maybe 10 minutes ,unscrew blk plate around the gauge cluster,lower the tilt steering fully with the adjustment,unbolt some of the plastic covering and panels to access some of the lower bolts,unbolt the service center pod located next to the gauge pod.Now you should be looking at just the cluster ,around 6 bolt hold it in ,once youve taken them out the cluster will pull right out,plugs in to the back ,reverse steps your done.
